<div><FONT color=black size=2 face=arial> longhiker, perhaps you can read Cupcake's original post again. It was not a malicious attack on the MWA. he simply questioned the policy of bicycle and motorized use, and made it clear HE doesn't like it and questions the long-term impact of wheeled uses, both human and machine. In your opinion it is misguided -- that's fine -- but it wasn't rude or inappropriate. I bet lots of CDT supporters struggle with the bicycle/motorcycle issue.</FONT></div>
<div> I would also bet the MWA struggles with it as well, and it's doing the best it can.</div>

<div class=MsoNormal>Longhiker I'm sure you are a fine person. You should check your impulses to tell other hikers to "Get over it", "Stay home", & etc., and leave off sneering about "philosophers" on the CDT-L. This is a public forum and the ethic ought to be civility. I think your substantive point that the Montana Wilderness Association is a valued organization and deserving of hiker support was a good one. But you were steadily undermining its impact with the extraneous comments. We all belong within the hiker community and should feel welcome on trail. </div>

<div class=MsoNormal>We all support avoiding user conflicts. It's too late in the game to keep motorized recreationalists off public lands. But it is not too late to keep them off a silent, hiker dedicated CDT. That ought to be our common goal.</div>
